The Shelby comes with 14 inch Brembos and they stop like a dream. Granted, the Shelby is not a cornering machine. But give the car a decent tune and it is a whole new animal.

Top Gear is a good show and the guys do know what they are talking about. Granted everyone makes mistakes sometimes but they both own Fords, well Clarkson actually sold his GT, but the point is thew wouldnt rip on it just because its American. They are used to driving Aston Martins and Ferraris and just expect more out of a "sporty" car.

+1, they're just the types who want more out of a car.
